Ninja Experience Cafe Takayama is a facility where visitors can have an authentic samurai/ninja experience in the conveniently located historical city of Takayama in Gifu Prefecture. The store displays historical helmets, swords, and tea utensils that are important for learning about old Japan.

In the ninja experience course, you can change into a ninja costume, try your hand at shuriken with an authentic iron shuriken, blow an arrow, or stay with a sword using a replica sword. Visitors can experience ninja training, such as sword iai using imitation swords (kata training using blades, an essential part of real ninja training).

There are also drinks and sweets to enjoy as entertainment, and the area can also be used as a rest stop for visitors tired from taking pictures or traveling in the high mountains.

Why don't you don a ninja costume, experience authentic ninja training, and learn about the natural history of Japan and the role of the ninja? Ninja Experience Cafe Takayama is a facility that both adults and children can enjoy. Please come to Ninja Experience Cafe Takayama when you visit Nagoya, Gifu, or Takayama to create memories of your trip to Japan.

About Takayama Tourism

Takayama City in Gifu Prefecture is one of Japan's most fascinating tourist destinations for its history; the old townscape, which still retains traces of the Edo period (over 400 years ago), is lined with historical buildings and traditional craft stores, and the entire city feels like a time-traveling experience beyond time and space.

In the center of Takayama City, the "old streets" lined with old merchant houses and warehouses, visitors can feel the town's history. In particular, the "Takayama Jinya (camp)," a nationally designated historic site, is a dignified building of the samurai, and its magnificent garden is not to be missed.

Why not experience the stage of history in Takayama City and enjoy the luxury of being immersed in the atmosphere of good old Japan?
